Me? When I was in my early twenties I had a TVR Grantura MK III. What a cool car that was! I also bought a motorcycle around then (1972), British of course! It was a 750 cc 1970 Royal Enfield Interceptor SII. It was the export model with the chrome tank - very sexy!

What say you? (I can see pictures might work well here.)

While not rare, I would have to say my 67 Mustang is the coolest car I have owned so far.

I had a 1981 Subaru Brat 1/2 car 1/2 truck like a mini El Camino.It was 4WD and could go anywhere.There were only 3or4 in the whole province and mine had a cap so it was really unique.I'd buy another one in a heartbeat if I could find one,it was pretty quick too.It certainly attracted a lot of stares.

This is a scan of a 40 year old Polaroid.[img][img]http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/kk16/gridloktu/TVR.jpg[/img][/img]

And here's the Royal Enfield I owned for 34 years.[img][img]http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/kk16/gridloktu/Enfield.jpg[/img][/img]

What fun!

My first car was a 1961 Buick Invicta like this one, but Daphne blue:

I bought it in 1980 when I was 16 years old. I worked all summer to earn the $750 that it cost. That seemed like all the money in the world back then. Believe it or not, 10 of us skinny teenagers could fit in that thing. 8)

I own a 2003 HD Superglide. I think it is the coolest vehicle I have ever owned but my guitars and amp take the "cool cake" for me.

A 1971 Chevelle Super Sport with big block 402 engine, cowl induction hood, headers, and other add ons. It got 7 miles to the gallon, but what a ride getting there.

I drive a 2000 Vauxhall Astra :roll:

Great car for a first car though!

Love the GT500 and that Invicta, I am a massive fan of old American cars :D

1973 Trans-Am Super Duty 455 bored to 462. Solid lifters, full race cam, 850 Holley doublepumper. That car was scary fast. Loved it bigtime. A number of Harley Davidsons over the years. 8) Mike

64 Vette - Nice!!!!!! Was that a 327 in 64? Was the 4 speed a Hurst? What a stylin' ride.
